With today’s release, IE9 is available in all languages that Windows Vista is available in and in 93 of 96 languages Windows 7 is available in.

IE9 through Windows Update for the 53 new languages released today

We will start offering IE9 to customers in one of the 53 new languages starting next week via the Automatic Update feature of Windows Update. As described earlier, we will offer IE9 via a gradual rollout and expect the rollout to be largely complete by the end of June.

IE9 language packs will also be available as an optional update via Windows Update to help users who have IE9 installed and one or more Windows Language Interface pack in the 53 new languages available today.
More Languages, Faster: From IE8 to IE9

With IE9, our goal was to deliver more languages faster. More specifically, our goals included the simultaneous release of final IE9 in more languages than IE8, and a shorter interval between the final release of IE9 and the remaining languages.
Customizing IE9 using IEAK9

With this release, IEAK9 now supports building custom IE9 packages in all 93 languages. IEAK9 is a tool used to simplify the creation, deployment and management of customized IE9 packages. You can download IEAK9 from http://ieak.microsoft.com. Please see the TechNet site for information on using IEAK9 to build custom IE9 packages.

Thank you for using IE9 in a language of your choice, and we hope you will enjoy this release as much as we do!

Disable Debugging script and runtime errors in Internet Explorer

I thought I’d take a couple minutes to talk about Script Debugging and Internet Explorer.

Script debugging is turned off by default you can enable it by going to:
Tools->Internet Options…->Advanced->Disable Script Debugging

Prior to XPSP2 the above will turn script debugging on for all applications that host the WebBrowser control (Outlook for example).

On XPSP2 we’ve split the option into two:
Tools->Internet Options…->Advanced->Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)
Tools->Internet Options…->Advanced->Disable Script Debugging (Other)

When you’ve enabled Script Debugging ‘View->Script Debugger’ will now be present to help you break into the debugger.

The debugger statement can also be placed anywhere in your code to suspend execution this is similar to setting a breakpoint.
The Stop statement is the VBScript version of JScript’s debugger statement.

There are three applications which I’ve used for script debugging. One is Visual Studio.Net, the second is Microsoft Script Debugger and the third is Microsoft Script Editor:

Miscrosoft Script Debugger:
You can obtain a copy of the Microsoft Script Debugger here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2f465be0-94fd-4569-b3c4-dffdf19ccd99&displaylang=en

The main MSDN page for using the Microsoft Script Debugger can be found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sdbug/Html/sdbug_1.asp

The Microsoft Script debugger allows you to debug client side and server side scripts and provides the same functionality as most debuggers do.

Directions on using the Microsoft Script debugger can be found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sdbug/Html/sdbug_2.asp

Microsoft Script Editor:
The Microsoft Script Editor comes free with Microsoft Office XP/2003 with FrontPage.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnfp2k2/html/odc_fpdebugscripts.asp

Visual Studio.net:
For Visual Studio.net debugging Monica Rosculet has written an excellent article on: Debugging Script Code Using Visual Studio.

Other:
Gregg Miskelly a developer on the Visual Studio team has posted some excellent information about: How Script Debugging Works.

Disable Debugging script and runtime errors in Internet Explorer

Are you getting annoying messages such as "A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?" or "Internet Explorer Script Error. An error has occurred in the script on line 1. Do you wish to continue running scripts on this page?"

There are three reasons why these problems occur. The first is that the web page author made some programming error. The second reason may be that you are running a pop-up killer that closes pop-up windows so fast that the script on the web page fails. The third is that you might have some adware or spyware installed on your computer that opens the script error pop-ups.

How to disable script and runtime errors
You can configure Internet Explorer to ignore these script and runtime errors. Please follow this step-by-step guide:

1. Open Internet Explorer.

2. Click on Tools, then on Internet Options.

3. Click on the Advanced tab.

4. Look for the "Disable script debugging" line and put a check mark in the box.

5. Now look for the "Display a notification about every script error" line and remove the check mark in the box.

Windows error message Microsoft Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close (Pdm.dll)

windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the inconvenience

Important This article discusses a very specific Internet Explorer crash in older versions of the script debugger (Pdm.dll) that was included with Office 2000 and Visual Studio 6 (pre-SP3 version). If you view the error report details listed in the "Symptoms" section, and Pdm.dll version 6.0.0.8169 is not listed under Module Name, then this article does not apply to you.

If you are experiencing other Internet Explorer issues, such as Internet Explorer hanging, not working, or restarting, please visit the following Microsoft Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/pc_ie_intro

I had the exact same problem a while ago with the "My Videos" folder. Here's the solution:
1. Click on Start>>Run.
2. Paste the following command:

regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll

Click OK.

Now try revisiting the folder. It should work. To undo the above command, Click on Start>>Run and type:

regsvr32 shmedia.dll

That's all there is to it.

Enjoy!
